Review on Noctua NF A12X25 FLX 3 Pin Premium by Chase Steele

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Quiet and efficient water cooling fan

I read about these fans and thought I'd throw my money away trying one. Well, the color surprised and satisfied me! I bought an Arctic Cooling Liquid Freezer 120 for my new Ryzen 2 2600X. The standard fans were mostly quiet, except at full speed (1500 rpm) they were audible. This Noctua fan is as quiet at 2000 rpm as the Arctic Cooling fans are at 1500 rpm! I put this Noctua fan on top of the heatsink to push it and left the standard arctic on the other side to pull it and my CPU temp dropped 3 degrees Celsius just from replacing the fan have! This is a very well designed fan with many accessories included in the box. I've always been hesitant to buy Noctua fans due to the higher cost, but I think this fan is worth it.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Not sure
